This is an 18.25" x 26" Iranian busta-style poster by an unknown
designer made to promote the 1962 Samouel Khachikian
film Horror [delhoreh] starring Reza Beyk Imanverdi based on a
screenplay by Samuel Khachikian with cinematography by Ghodratallah
Ehsani. The film was produced by the Azhir film studio. Plot
summary: Behrouz, the husband of Roshanak Niknezhad, was a writer of
crime stories and he managed the factory owned by Roshanak's uncle,
who had been killed in a factory accident. A man named Babak came to
their home as a journalist with some love letters from Roshanak. He
said he would give her five of the letters for 5000 tumans and the
sixth one in return for sleeping with him. Roshanak gave Babak the
money but before he could take hold of her she shot him. Roshanak
went back into the house and encountered Babak, who had not been
killed, several times. On the other hand a policeman named Jamshid,
who had previously loved Roshanak and was investigating the mysterious
death of her uncle, got involved in the episode. The police thought
Roshanak had killed her uncle but in their investigations they
realized that Behrouz had been behind all the incidents and that he
had wanted to eliminate Roshanak and her uncle so he could take their
wealth. Jamshid knocked Behrouz down and arrested his colleagues.
